3. Intake Manifold
D The port diameter of the intake manifold has been increased and the port length has been optimized
to improve engine performance.
D An engine coolant passage connects the left and right banks at the rear end of the intake manifold.
D The intake manifold gasket has rubber coating applied onto surface, and provide superior durability.

5. Exhaust Pipe
D A ball joint has been adopted for the connection between the front exhaust pipe and the center exhaust
pipe, as well as between the center exhaust pipe and the tailpipe to reduce vibration.
D A 2-way exhaust control system has been adopted to improve engine performance and ensure an even
quieter operation.

2-Way Exhaust Control System
D This system reduces the back pressure by opening and closing a control valve that is enclosed in the main
muffler, thus varying the exhaust gas passage.
D The valve opens steplessly in accordance with the operating condition of the engine, thus enabling a
quieter operation at lower engine speeds, and reducting back pressure at higher engine speeds.
1) Construction
The control valve is enclosed in the main muffler. When the exhaust gas pressure overcomes the spring
pressure, the control valve opens steplessly in accordance with the exhaust gas pressure.
2) Operation
a. When Control Valve is Closed (low engine speed)
Since the pressure in the main muffler is low, the control valve is closed. Hence exhaust gas does
not pass the bypass passage, and exhaust noise is decreased by the main muffler.
b. When Control Valve is Open (middle to high engine speed)
The control valve opens more as the engine speed and the back pressure in the muffler increase. This
allows a large volume of exhaust gas to pass the bypass passage, thereby substantially decreasing the
back pressure.

JFUEL SYSTEM
1. Air Assist Fuel Injection System
This system is designed to regulate air intake to the upperstream (atmospheric side) of the throttle valve
using the ISC valve, and direct it to the nozzle of the fuel injector inside the intake manifold (negative
pressure side). This promotes atomization of the fuel while reducing emissions and improving fuel economy
and idle stability.

2. Fuel Returnless System
This system is to reduce the evaporative emission. As shown below, integrating the pressure regulator
and fuel filter with the fuel pump assembly made it possible to discontinue the return of fuel from the
engine area and prevent temperature rise inside the fuel tank.

JIGNITION SYSTEM
1. General
A DIS (Direct Ignition System) has been adopted in the 1MZ-FE engine. The DIS improves the ignition
timing accuracy, reduces high-voltage loss, and enhances the overall reliability of the ignition system by
eliminating the distributor.
The DIS in 1MZ-FE engine is an independent ignition system which has one ignition coil for each cylinder.

2. Ignition Coil
A compact and cylindrical ignition coil with a built-
in igniter has been adopted.
Shaped in such a way that it can be placed directly
over the spark plug, the ignition coil is installed in
the spark plug hole of the cylinder head.
As a result, the high-tension cords are no longer nec-
essary and high-voltage loss and electromagnetic in-
terference have been reduced.
3. Spark Plug
Iridium-tipped spark plugs have been adopted to improve ignition performance while maintaining the same
level of durability of the platinum-tipped spark plugs.
